Spray-on sausage skin (Feb, 1965)

Spray-on sausage skin

Fed by a mechanical mixer and hopper, this machine produces 180 sausages an hour with one operator. The British invention extrudes the meat, cuts it into lengths, and sprays on skin as sausages pass on a belt.

Skin, a pulverized-vegetable emulsion, is piped through nozzles as sausages leave the extruder. It dries in 30 seconds.
